Scientists are excited, because it appears China has reached peak fossil fuel, with electricity from renewables now becoming its dominant energy source. Massive investment in renewables and EVs in China has done what the rest of the world only pays lip service to. Just look at the graph, the West doing as good as nothing, for nearly 40 years, and actually getting worse as time goes on. That massive investment is also driving down the costs of these technologies for us. Our own leaders may as well be cardboard cutouts for the use they are to us. Right now they’re desperately trying to shut this down in China, with massive tariffs. They say it’s ’unfair’ to our car and energy businesses. Businesses we should have shut down 30 years ago.
